Soluble Prion Peptide 107–120 Protects Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells against Oligomers Associated with Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia and soluble amyloid β (Aβ) oligomers are thought to play a critical role in AD pathogenesis. Cellular prion protein (PrP<sup>C</sup>) is a high-affinity receptor for Aβ oligomers and mediates some of their toxic effects. The...
